OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is still very much a car guy

A TikToker posted several videos showing Altman attending an impromptu car meet. The event included a Koenigsegg Regera that might look familiar.

Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, remains an avid car enthusiast, according to a recent TikTok video. The video, posted by a TikToker named Miguel Godinez, shows a gathering of various exotic and sports cars parked on a winding road near Lake Berryessa, California. Among the vehicles were a Ford Mustang, an Acura NSX, a Pagani Utopia, and a Koenigsegg Regera, all of which are considered high-end automobiles.

Surprisingly, amidst this impressive collection, the OpenAI CEO was also present. Godinez, who was attending the car meet with his friends, described Altman as a "normal person driving his car just like us," suggesting that even tech industry elites can share a common interest in automobiles. Altman's presence at the gathering wasn't a planned event; rather, he happened to be in the area when Godinez and his group stopped at a gas station for a break.

Godinez's account of the encounter highlights the fact that Sam Altman's passion for cars is just as strong as his role as a tech industry leader.
